The house was built in the 1930s. My husband and I bought the property in 2004 and with hard work and love, we have turned it into a wonderful home. The Space: We have added all of the modern conveniences while at the same time retaining the classic look of a Folly Beach cottage. In the ten years we have lived here, we have gotten married and had two wonderful little girls, so as you can imagine, the house is very special to us. The home is ideally located for visitors who want to walk to all of the local attractions. The beach, the pier, and BLU, the only ocean front restaurant and bar in the Charleston area, are within easy walking distance (2-5 blocks). Center Street's restaurants and shops are just two blocks away. Downtown Charleston, with its historic architecture, carriage rides, museums, and fine dinning is less than 20 minutes away as well. The home itself is just as ideal as its location. The spacious back deck boasts a large dinning table in addition to a relaxing sitting area. The back yard is a private area that is perfect for horseshoes, croquet, or a game of kick-ball. From the backyard, take a walk down the boardwalk through the marsh to a small private island that boasts a hammock and a lovely playhouse. From the island, stroll down the dock right out to the Folly River. The dock is outfitted with a table and chairs, which makes it the perfect place for sunset drinks or a lunch-time swim. Keep a watch out for the wild-life. You'll be sure to see birds, crabs, and dolphin. Back at the house, you'll find the interior just as special as the outside. From the front porch, step into the living room, which has the original wood floors and a lovely fire place. The living room opens into the kitchen and dinning area. The kitchen is bright and includes gorgeous granite counter-tops and all of the amenities. The cooks in your party will appreciate the attention to detail and will be able to whip up a fantastic dinning experience with ease. Every gadget and accessory has been provided, so don't worry about bringing your micro-zester from home! Right off of the dinning area is a cozy t.v. room that comes in handy if you want the children to watch a video away from the adults or if you'd like to get away yourself for a little beach reading. There are three lovely bedrooms in the home. The master bedroom, which has a queen bed, a flat-screen t.v. and a private bath, is on the first floor. The other two bedrooms, which share a bath, are upstairs. One bedroom has a queen bed while the other has two twin beds. All of the rooms are stylishly decorated. Additionally, the home has such conveniences as a washer and dryer and free WiFi. On your arrival, you'll find the home stocked with a starter supply of the essentials so that you can unpack without stress. We have a no-smoking and a no-pet policy. We rent by the week in the summer. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Cobblestone flooring in public areas - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near the sea - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Optional golf privileges - Water park ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Rules Hock Homes Vacation Rental Guest Agreement Guests agree to the following rules and understand that possible termination of occupancy may occur if ... ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a professional host.

Stayed 5 nights in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark 8 May 2023 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great place - clean, beautifully decorated and close to town. Loved the long walkway out to the dock area. Our only complaint was the very loud construction noise/music due to a major renovation at the house directly next door, which made it tough to thoroughly enjoy the home during the weekdays (sometimes til 7:30 at night!). ##### Mark Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Elizabeth T. 31 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### First time in Folly The house was great! Great location! Perfect for walking to town but far enough away for the peace and quiet! My 6 year old loved our walks to the beach and my 12 and 13 year old loved riding their bikes around town. The wind kept us off the deep water dock for our stay but on a calm day it would be amazing! The walk out there alone was worth it! Highly recommend this place. Only suggestion my teenager would make is to add a TV upstairs. 😉 ##### Elizabeth T.

Saw a mama and baby dolphin surfacing near the boat dock one morning. It was a long walk out from the house but definitely my favorite spot for morning coffee or happy hour! We also enjoyed the screened front porch on those rainy evenings. The house was beautifully decorated, spacious, and super clean. We really enjoyed our stay. ##### Linda B.

We loved both the front porch and incredible sunsets on the back deck. It’s a gorgeous home full of charm. So clean and well appointed. We had a great girls trip to enjoy Charleston and made it out as Hurricane Ian takes aim. Thanks so much! ##### Bridget P. Stayed 5 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan T., Clayton, NC 29 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Week We loved the convenience of walking everywhere. Easy walk to the center of town and the beach. We really enjoyed the dock especially for sunset. It was very relaxing and we had great weather. If you have teenagers (like we did) they might want to bring a friend. Not too much for them to do in town. We still enjoyed our stay! ##### Megan T.

The home owner was very easy to with with and has stocked the home/kitchen with most everything! It was the perfect place for us to call home for the week and we’d definitely stay here again! ##### Abbe C. Stayed 5 nights in May 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jyotsana L. 27 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great stay in a beautiful home The house is spotless with beautiful polished wood floors in a quiet neighborhood of Folly Beach but still within walking distance of the beach, market and main strip of restaurants. It was an easy drive to Charleston and the Plantations so a good home base for the area. Unfortunately, we were not able to enjoy the dock and fishing because it is further out then it appears in the pictures and it was difficult for us to walk that far. However, we so enjoyed sitting on the back porch and saw so many birds as well as the screened-in front porch for morning coffee. I would highly recommend this property. ##### Jyotsana L. Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meredith S., Richmond, VA 18 Apr 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Checks all the boxes I hesitate to write this review because I really want to keep this listing to ourselves! We will absolutely be back. This property truly stands apart. Unlike many rentals-- filled with generic furniture, limited accessories and decor -- this house has a real soul. It is incredibly comfortable, filled with art and all the extra touches that make it unique and lovable. We were a family of three this time - mom, daughter (age 11) and grandma. Downstairs primary suite perfect for 78 year old with some mobility challenges. While our weather wasn't perfect, we were able to enjoy the scenic river views (including dolphin swimming right near the dock). The house is in extremely close proximity to fantastic restaurants and Bert's was convenient for paninis, wine and an incredible dessert station. The proximity to Charleston is also terrific. It's really quite easy to pop in and out. In fact, I would stay fully in Folly next time and plan Charleston excursions from Folly. The house was spotless upon arrival. Pillow cases ironed (yes, ironed). I cannot tell you how many times we've come across kitchen utensil drawers and cookware that are not up to par. This was not the case. In fact, everything seemed so new and sparkling. Thank you to Tara and Co. This was a restful haven and we're grateful to you for sharing it. ##### Meredith S.

The house has always been very clean and we love the view and dock. We will definitely be booking again for next year. ##### Clay S.

We stayed a total of 4 nights. The house was well stocked and we were very please to see baby gates, high chairs and changing pads in the home. It’s hard to travel with two under two and having these items available was great! The beach and restaurants were about 5 min walk away and we managed to find a playground that the kids loved. We would definitely book again. ##### Andrew M. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2021
